Questions we get asked most
How much will you pay for my house?
We look at what comparable homes in your neighborhood have actually sold for, what the house needs, and what it will be worth once it is fixed. Then we work backwards to a number we can genuinely pay. We will walk you through how we got there.
Do you charge any fees or commissions?
No. There are no commissions, no listing fees and no closing costs on your side. The number we agree on is the number you get.
How fast can you close?
We can close in 7 to 10 days when you need us to. We can also wait months if you need time to move, sort out an estate or find your next place. You choose the date.
Will I have to make repairs or clean the place out?
No. We buy as-is. We have bought houses with roof damage, decades of clutter and everything in between. Take what matters to you and leave the rest.
How are you different from a real estate agent?
An agent lists your house and looks for a buyer, which takes time and costs commission. We are the buyer. There is no listing, no waiting on someone else’s mortgage approval and no commission.
Is your offer a fair price?
Our offer is usually below full retail, and we will say that plainly. What you get in exchange is speed, certainty and no repair or commission costs. If listing would genuinely net you more and you have the time, we will tell you.
